A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

"Destroy" allows regeneration, "bury" doesn't. That's the only difference. Oh, and by regeneration, I mean the "X: regenerate" ability, not the general idea of bringing a card back into play.Vicious wrote:Really? I stand corrected, then. Everyone I've talked has said "Bury" meant "Remove from the game". Ok, thanks for the info. What was the purpose of distinguishing between "Bury X" like Dark Banishing and "Destroy X" ala Shatter?
In your example, lets say they're each targeting an artifact creature (since only creatures can be regenerated) with the ability "1: regenerate". Dark banishing would send it straight to the graveyard, with no chance to save it. Shatter would destroy it, allowing you to pay 1 to regenerate it and save it. If you did, it would stay in play, never even touching the graveyard. If you don't regenerate it, it goes to the graveyard. And regardless of which method used to kill it, another spell could later take it out of the graveyard and put it somewhere else (in play, hand, etc).
Now two other relevant spells. Swords to plowshares is simple, the creature would leave the game permanently, with no chance to save it and no way of bringing it back. Incinerate would deal 3 damage to it, and prevent it from regenerating for the rest of the turn.
And I think I was wrong on the replacement order. Looking through my cards, I think "bury" was actually the older version, which got replaced by "destroy and can't be regenerated".

I'd appreciate honest feedback. I made myself "artifact" color because I like earth/stone/geology, and didn't feel any of the 5 colors fit me. Also, I don't think I'm quite up to "legendary" colors.

Considering that Dwarves are generally red(underground) and red lands are mountains, I think that red would be your best choice.

/me takes second look at Rebecca card.
Hmm. Let me check something...
Just a nitpick.
PS, I have thought up my next abombination!
Hmm. Let me check something...
Yep. I knew it. Mike, according to the official M:tG rules, the card named in the text must exactly match the name of the card in order for that card to be affected. Since Rebecca clearly refers to "AdmiralKanos" and not "Admiral Kanos", it doesn't affect this card.
Just a nitpick.

Actually, the AdmiralKanos card is wrong, because the username as spelled on the board has no space.

Many of these cards would really benefit from some selective blurring to lessen the pixelization. Here's one example:
http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/2171/admiralk9ib.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v324/ ... alk9ib.jpg
In the Gimp, you can do this by selecting the picture region of the card and doing a simple blur. By the way, this gives approximately the same results as using cubic interpolation when enlarging the picture in the first place.
